Cannabinoid oil usually comes from hemp which is basically marijuana less the THC. Hemp oil consumption can show thc in the blood and cause you to fail a piss test but will never get you high. You can also get it "pure" which means no thc. Neither hemp nor cnb are schedule 1 drugs and can be purchased legally in most states. I know several people who use it with great success for pain management. I've tried it and I think it helps with my minor arthritis. I've got a sister who lives in the Atlanta area that distributes it thru a multi level marketing company and would be glad to show you what they have to offer. In my opinion this and a lot of "natural" remedies really do wonders for some people by providing something that an individuals system doesn't supply whereas another person may not see as much effect because they are not naturally deficient. If you've got pain issues I would definitely recommend giving it a try. As a government worker tho you should probably try the "pure" stuff.
